unlike the last debate where the candidates stood at podiums, this time both president and mitt romney will have to speak directly to voters and answer their questions in a semi-circular lay-up. stakes are high for both candidates with steven hess of the brookings institute telling us he expects president obama to put on a stronger showing and should enter the debate with high expectations. >> now the shoe is on the other foot. now he has to worry to living up to expectations and so the next day's story is not just obama did better, we expect that, but that romney fell back. so he's got his own scale that he has to move up. >> well president obama practiced for the first debate out in las vegas but spent his time this weekend prepping in williamsberg, virginia. mitt romney kept his rehearsal sessions in the same place, in the state of massachusetts, and after tomorrow there is one more presidential debate on monday, october 22nd in florida. right now we want to head up to hofstra university on long island in new york. we bring in joe waldman from wnyw. how are you? >> feeling pretty gr

and i think we saw last week that both governor romney and president obama weren't afraid to interrupt and get involved and duke it out a little bit. i this i people like that format. candy crowley is a professional. whatever the rules are, she'll handle it well. at the end of the day, it's not about the process. it's how do we get americans back to work and out of debt. and i think that's why this debate, like the others, will favor mitt romney because the president's plans, hey, he's worked hard, they have not worked. we are $16 trillion in debt. we have joblessness over 43% -- over 8% for 43 months until this month. and doubling of gas prices, et cetera. these are the issues, and i think it's going to be the vision that mitt romney's laid out versus the record of the president. and i think that favors the governor. >> you're talking -- you're focusing on the economic issues that many of us thought were going to be the core of this campaign. at the same time, benghazi and libya and the concerns that -- >> yeah. >> -- that lindsey graham expressed. how much do you think mitt romney sh

today both candidates are back out there burning up the campaign trail. president obama is urging supporters to get almost obsessive about his re-election. >> so i need you in this election the next 29 days. we cannot afford to be complacent. >> reporter: the president wrapped up a california fundraising blitz in san francisco. he asked donors to send e-mails and make phone calls to people in swing states who will decide the election. >> we have to understand that we've got a lot more to do, and if we don't do it, then change won't happen. >> reporter: republican nominee mitt romney heads to middle america today for more campaign rallies. last week's debate re-energized his campaign, and now he has the numbers to prove it. in a pew research center poll last month, romney trailed president obama by eight points, 51% to 43%. but a new poll taken after the presidential debate last week shows him ahead now by four points, 49% to 45%. >> and people wonder why it is i'm so confident we're going to win. i'm confident because i see you here on a day like this, th
